Summary
Reviewers say 'Tracker' is lauded for its engaging premise, Justin Hartley's strong performance, and intriguing cases. The blend of action, suspense, and character-driven storytelling is appreciated. However, some find it formulaic with repetitive plots and underdeveloped characters. Complaints arise about the lack of genuine tracking elements and reliance on tech. Political undertones also detract for some, though it remains an enjoyable procedural drama.
Featured reviews
This is a very clean-cut and overly-done show but I really missed them. I rated it a 8/10 for what it is. It's not Game of Thrones. It's unpretentious, doesn't take itself too seriously and is the perfect Saturday fare that I used to watch as a kid.
The protagonist is a lone wolf, bad boy with a golden heart, dark past, falls in love with a new love interest each episode, is better than anyone else at fighting, thinking, policing, tracking, etc.. and defeats the "villain of the week" with ease.
I missed this so that's why I rated this so highly, but it's really cute and cozy and you definitely know what you're getting into. Simple entertainment, without any agenda. Just a decent guy trying to make the world a better place, one reward at a time. Quite fun.

I wasn't sure that I was going to watch Tracker because to be honest there just aren't too many good shows on network tv anymore and there a million shows like this one so for me to watch it it would have to really stick out and be good. Well, Tracker has. Besides hearing nothing but good things about this show it's also the most watched show on tv. Like I said, most of the best shows are now on a streaming service or cable but Tracker has become one of the best on network tv. I've been a fan of Justin Hartley since Smallville and have always wondered why he hasn't been given a chance to star in big show. Now that he has he's more than shown he can carry a show because he's the best part of this show.
The second season is much better than the first. Finally, the tracker is starting to live up to the series' name - and we see more trackers, a little more survival, spatial awareness that suits the terrain, and even more eccentric characters who live in the wild.
There is still a lot to improve, but it is definitely a change for the better As someone who decided to watch this series just because of the name, I almost created it in the first season which was not at all related to nature and outdoor skills; But I'm happy that my hope that the central element I was looking for in the series really appears more and more in the second season and it also makes all the stories in the series much more interesting and cool. For those who have the patience to endure the first season and wait for the second, it is recommended.

If you've read the books, you know that Colter Shaw is very matter of fact and quick to a plan and follows through that plan by his actions. Throughout his "rewards" he's trying to uncover the fate of his father and his brother. The other reviewers are making negative comments regarding Colter that are actually true to the books. If you liked the books, this is pretty much on the mark. I'm looking forward to more episodes and since I did read all the bools, I know Colter will get into more "outlandish" situations and get himself out of it. I've read Lee Childs, too and Jack is a lot more violent, but both he and Colter always hatch a plan, see it through without, well, almost, without a hitch and save the day. And not everything is political.
This is a series full of action and suspenseful mystery. Each episode offers a new adventure with high tension and clever puzzle-solving. Beyond the action, the Shaw family mystery provides an emotional layer that keeps you intrigued. The series successfully combines elements of investigation, family drama, and survival, making it an exciting and suspenseful watch. The chemistry between the characters also steals the show, especially Justin's interactions with Jensen Ackles' character in the special episode, full of funny jokes and exciting dynamics. For lovers of mystery and adventure stories, Tracker is a very captivating choice.
